i knew this shit really happend and i wasn't making it up, i remember seeing a flyer for this when i was looking at old punk shit online back in the day.
It's a five-door. The new ones don't look as much like eggs in the front, but they're still dome shaped. I wanted the three-door, but they didn't have one in a five speed where I looked. It's cool though because the one I got was an SE, which only comes in the five-door, and it turns out that one is cooler than the L, because it has four wheel discs, stiffer springs and electronic steering assist thingy.

Dude, Ben, I got a Yaris, and it is tight. It is a manual.
It's for PC/Mac/Android/iOS... also I think you can play it in a web browser. This video series is what got me into minecraft: [ www.youtube.com/watch?v=A ]

Well at this point I think they've got enough money on their kickstarter to actually do Psychonauts 2. I've never played minecraft, I've heard a lot about it though. Is it just for the PC?

Yeah! Notch offered to fund Double Fine to make Psychonauts 2 then Double Fine did this whole kickstarter thing coincidentally. So now Notch has been bugging them to make Psychonauts 2 with all the money they raised... but I think they're going to make something else. Boo.
Do you play minecraft Ryan?

I just thought it was funny, even if it lacks subtlety. I like it because there is so much peer pressure in suburban environments for people to have the right kind of house and front yard. Neighbors will get mad at you if they don't think your house is acceptable. I think homeowners' associations are unamerican.

I think that its irresponsible to have a lawn in las vegas and i also think that there has been some more interesting art using photo synthesis, stuff along the lines of this [ boingboing.net/2008/07/07 ] but if you are asking my opinion because you are planing on making some lawn art i say go for it.
What do you think of this, Ben? I thought it was pretty funny. I found it while searching for articles on making my lawn greener. Yes, I care about how green my lawn is now that I am renting a house. Lawn care is just one of the many duties of a responsible suburbanite.
I'm torn because although I like the look of the green grass, a part of me knows it is meant to evoke the appearance of a wealthy Tory estate. It is a symbol of the landed elite that has been adopted by the bourgeoisie.
Nevertheless it is lush, and we will play soccer on it. I water that shit every day, and it looks like fucking Rivendell.
Hey guys, big party at our house on July 29th. We'll have food, brewskis, probably some live music, bonfire. It'll be a lot of fun, since it always is.
no worries, kyle. glad someone got 'em out of your mom's hair...

Hey Ben we're actually now starting to look around for flights, hotels/rentals in Seattle. Are there any days/weeks in the upcoming 4-6 weeks we should avoid? Meaning you won't be around?

This is not my diagnosis either. We have a proper vet. A little over 2 weeks ago Gus' face started blowing up and he could barely breathe. We took him in and they said it was either an infection or worse case lymphoma. They gave us Cephalexin and said if its an infection he should clear up in a few days. It didn't, he got worse, stopped eating and could barely walk. We brought him in again. He was severely dehydrated, fever of 105, lesions inside his nose. After being checked out again they told us they think it could be aids. Gave us Prednisone and Ciprofloxacin. He started to eat and get better. They said once we stop the meds if the symptoms kick in again then its likely an immune disorder. We stopped yesterday and he is starting to deteriorate again... so who knows but it sucks.

Ben, yea we are still planning and hoping this month. There has been a non-stop line of events happening keeping us here. We haven't even been to Napa in 5 weeks. Right now we are waiting to see if our dog has aids... just stopped the medication today so hopefully he does not. When he is in the clear we'll start looking for flights.

Did anyone ever notice that the word, "pseudoscience" is itself pseudo-scientific? I mean, it's not like a scientist can test something to see if it's positive for pseudoscience; they can only determine if it is positive for science. Everything else is just unsubstantiated.
He lives in Benicia now. I'll tell him and try picking up the equipment next time we visit. Then bring it out with us to Seattle. Which we are still planning. Stuff got a bit crazy this holiday season. Jan is looking to be our break month but we are going to try to make it out some time in Feb, whenever flights are cheapest.

Hey Ben... Crystal has an uncle with a bunch of old Canon photography equipment. From when he was a photojournalist for a paper in Seattle (like 1970 or something). He said he wants to give it to someone who would use it so I brought up your name and showed him your work. Let me know if you are interested. He told me the names of all the stuff but I couldn't remember.
